What a different view than my normal! I spent a good part of this week staying in the "city" working on some Taproot things. I'm a big fan of holeing oneself up to really crank out the big things and that's just what we did. Focused attention like that on one task for so long feels so good, so productive. And also exhausting. If only for this introvert who went far over my spoken word limit by Tuesday at noon but kept on anyway. Phew!

The weekend ahead looks like bliss. Catching up with an old friend for dinner, to be followed by a weekend with nowhere to be but HOME. We've got a small crew at home right now too - everyone is off adventuring. So I'm sure to get some quiet moments, plenty of stillness and a whole lot of green. There is a garden to tend, woods to be walked, animals to be fed, and I think we just might get some raspberry jam made too. Sweet life of summer.
